Exactly what I wanted...and only what I wanted. I keep several high priority tabs open almost all the time, and I didn't want new tabs pushing them off to the right. This extension helps me keep my tabs in the order I want them in, without having to manually move things around. I've been using this extension for several years and still love it.

Works fine and simply good, however I suggest adding an optional settings as well, so that when a link is clicked inside a tab to another web page, again the tab is moved to the far right side of all tabs. This helps the person keep the chronological order of the opened pages. But notice some delicate issues if you want to implement it, such as single page applications and also URI fragments that do not have to change the tab's order.

Thank you very much for this extension.

Does exactly what it says. I have no idea why this isn't the default behaviour let alone why there's no built-in way to choose this. I wish I had known this existed ages ago.

Finally I am no longer a barbarian opening tabs in the middle of the list! Thank you!

Does exactly what it says on the tin, etc. What would make it 5 stars for me would be the option to _override_ the opening at the end, e.g. there are occasions when I need tabs to open next to the current tab rather than at the end - a shortcut (e.g. Alt-Click) that overrides send it to the end would make me a 5-star happy bunny.

Does exactly what it says. Works in 2018. Had issues finding other extensions without frequent issues or weird permission requirements, but this had none of the latter and so far none of the former. Love it.

I agree with the last review regarding a unique scenario of opening a tab in between other tabs. But that said, it's not a giant hassle without the feature in the slightest. Just open the new tab at far right, then move it to the desired position.

Another problem I noticed is that when restoring the last closed tab, it will be restored to the far right position. Would it be onerous to add an option to ignore moving the tab to the right if the new tab is made under either of these circumstances?

Either way, still 3s all around. Thanks so much for this.
